'''Last of the Brave''' is the fifth track (Disc 1 Track 5) in ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]'', and plays during the ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[campaign]] level ''[[Crow's Nest (level)|Crow's Nest]]''. It is composed of ''Last of the Brave'' (0:00-1:43), ''Cold Logic'' (1:43-2:22), and ''Cool Temperament'' (2:22-3:59).
'''Last of the Brave''' is a song included in the [[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]. It includes the tracks ''Last of the Brave'', ''Cold Logic'', and ''Cool Temperament'', and plays during the level [[Crow's Nest (level)|Crow's Nest]].


==Overview==
It begins with a remake of [[Brothers in Arms]] from the [[Halo: CE Original Soundtrack|Halo CE Soundtrack]], but with only the brass, percussion, and lower string parts, omitting the high strings, woodwind and choir. After reaching the climax point of the original Brothers in Arms, ''Last of the Brave'' then continues on with only the drumbeat, with the percussion gradually becoming more and more elaborate. A high string note fades in, before a drumroll brings the track to its conclusion.
===Last of the Brave===
''Last of the Brave'' (1:43) begins with a rearrangement of ''[[Brothers in Arms]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''), albeit omitting the high strings, woodwind and choir, thus leaving the brass, percussion, and low string sections. After reaching the climax point of the ''Brothers in Arms'' melody, the piece then continues on with only the drumbeat, with the percussion gradually becoming more and more elaborate. A high string note fades in, before a drumroll brings the piece to its conclusion. The piece plays as [[John-117]] enters the cave adjacent to the operations center and is told to go to the hangar.


===Cold Logic===
''Cold Logic'' uses a similar synth effect to [[Ancient Machine]] from Halo 2, with chromatic synthesised notes in the background. This part of the song fades out as a new low-string melody is introduced, which is then joined by percussion, continuing on until the end of the piece.
''Cold Logic'' (0:39) uses a similar synth effect to ''[[Ancient Machine]]'' (from ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack|Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 1]]''), with chromatic synthesised notes in the background. Low strings take over for transition to the next piece. The piece plays when John fights [[Yanme'e]] outside the operations center.


===Cool Temperament===
It runs for 3 minutes and 59 seconds.
''Cool Temperament'' (1:37) begins as the previous piece fades out and a new low-string melody is introduced, which is then joined by low tempo percussion, continuing on until the end of the piece. The piece plays after the John-117 leaves the operations center for the second time and fights the pack of [[Jiralhanae]] led by a [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftain]].
*It begins just as the player enters the cave where he meets [[Reynolds]] for the first time in the level and is told to go to the hangar.
*Brothers in Arms is also remade in [[Follow Our Brothers]], therefore ''Last of the Brave ''could be seen as the mirror opposite of that piece, which is centered on the [[Elite]]s, while Last of the Brave focuses on the [[UNSC]] that are stationed in [[Crow's Nest (Base)|Crow's Nest]].
*The track ''Cold Logic'' is similar to the [[Halo 2 OST]]'s [[Ancient Machine]], with both pieces using similar synth effects with a dissonant melody in the background, and both most likely referring to [[Forerunner]] technology.
